Serene Scenery for Best Birds

Pairing Serene Scenery with Best Birds provides the best of two worlds. Serene Scenery designer series paper stack contains 4 sheets each of 12 double sided designs. Each of the 6 x 6″ designs provide an awesome background to stamping right on top of it. There have been wonderful projects shared on Pinterest since the Stampin’ Up! annual catalog went live on June 1st.

I have been wanting a detailed bird stamp image and Stampin’ Up! delivered this year. Not only is there a great stamp set, but there are thinlits to coordinate with the set. And the best part…. buy it as a bundle and save 10% over purchasing both items separately!! Since I recently invested in Copic sketch markers, I couldn’t wait to try my hand at coloring the birds. This bird was colored with R00, R05, R12, YR00, YG61 and shaded with N2. Unfortunately I stamped, die cut and colored the tree branch about 3 weeks ago and failed to note which Copic colors I used.

Furthermore, there are several occasion sentiments with the stamp set that makes it very versatile for cardmaking. I used the Layering Oval Framelits for my sentiment and popped it up with stampin’ dimensionals. I love the additional scalloped ovals included with the new framelit set. You can have a peek of color or a larger block of color to accentuate an image… your choice!

I will be playing with this set more over the next couple of months. It’s just too cute not to!

Retired Stamp Sets for Sale

So, have you noticed a new menu item on my blog header? After 10 years of collecting Stampin’ Up! stamp sets, I finally decided to sell some of my retired sets. When you click on the menu, it will take you to my page that includes the links where you can view the spreadsheet of names, prices and additional information as well as a photo of the actual stamp set. I use Stamps.com to determine shipping costs and will provide the best shipping option to you. Let me know if you see a stamp set(s) that you might be interested in.

Any time I see a bird stamp set, I know it will be first on your list! I might be the butterfly stamper but you are certainly going to get anything bird-related. You made this card so realistic by using that fantastic new DSP that it could pass as a photo! You didn’t list your card ingredients but I am assuming that both of the backgrounds are from that DSP stack. Mine is arriving this week (don’t ask me what took me so long!) and I can’t wait to CASE this card!
